Although I play online games, I am only a moderate player and do not understand how some of my friends could spend the entire weekend locked in their rooms hitting the keyboard. They would probably ask me how I could spend the entire day blogging, but blogging and gaming are different, OK?
A friend of mine, whom I shall not name, is so addicted to Counterstrike that as soon as he returns from work on Friday evenings, he would be at the computer gaming. He would not even go to bed and would eat at the computer too.
You can say that his weekends revolve around Counterstrike and his game servers. I was surprised that he took time off to get married. Haha!
Another friend of mine plays Day of Defeat. I really can’t tell if these games are that good because I cannot tolerate 3D games that well and would get dizzy. Do you know that this friend, who plays Day of Defeat every night, once became suicidal when his broadband internet was down for a week. Haha! Later, he met his girlfriend and was cured of his addiction to gaming.
I think for gaming or blogging, moderation should be the key!
